2026 Summer Sea Term

Day 11 | Man overboard Drills

Day 11

Day 11’s highlight was the man overboard drill we conducted in the morning.  This consisted of taking a whole ship muster to see who was missing, turning the ship to the optimal pick-up area, and simulating launching the rescue boat.  The temp and humidity continue to rise as we near Cuba on are way back up to Texas.
